Thank you all very much for your prayers and well wishes. They're very much appreciated.

I'm doing a lot better now. The healing is almost complete. New tissue has filled in the pressure sore and a layer of skin has covered over it. They've also removed the catheter I've been using the last several months, and I'm feeling a lot better.

It's still painful to sit in my chair, but I'm trying to spend more time in it as each day goes by. In fact, with the recent warm weather, Chris got the RV out of storage and we went camping for a couple of days. Woo hoo!! First camping trip in over 3 years! We enjoyed it very much, but Chris was exhausted by the time we got home and unloaded. I spent about 12 hours in my chair on the last day of our trip, which was too much. My butt and my back were both pretty sore by the time I got home and in bed.

I'm still spending most of my time in bed. When I am in my chair, my hands and arms are still too weak to use the keyboard, so I'm still using the speech recognition software. Chris is typing this in for me.

All in all though, the recovery is continuing. I'm hoping it won't take too much longer until, God willing, I'm back on my feet again.

The nursing supervisor came in today and has discharged me. So we're now on our own. Prayers up.

Here are a few pics from our camping trip to Casa de Fruta (about 2 hours from our house):

Oh, my goodness! It is sooo good to hear from you AND to see pictures of you on your camping trip. Long time since I saw that motor home!

Prayers continue for you to keep up the healing process and to get some meat on those bones so it doesn’t hurt so bad to sit. LOL! And thanks to your wonderful sons for all the work they do!

So glad you got out and away from things for a few days. I need to do that, but due to taxation and certain goals, must keep working. Perhaps when (if) I retire there will be more direct comments about what has been happening in this country. I do want to prepare in case some foolish person or group of persons wants to visit me about it, though. Hang in there sir.
